    That's a pretty truck! Love that color. That will be sold before end of day today I bet.

    Yesterday unloading some furniture one my 11 year old couldn't open the tailgate handle without a lot of effort....knowing some moron was bound to uggadugga and break it, I stopped and opened up the tailgate panel and gave everything a blast of sillycone. Opens with one finger again.

    Last week I took my rack off and put the canopy on for the first time since I got it 6 years ago. I use the rack all the time since it’s my work vehicle but we went car camping and wanted to take more crap than fit in the car.
    The canopy has suffered some since I left it in the trees for those 6 years but still worked great. The struts are shot, clear coat is starting to go a little, the lights aren’t working, a few of the seals are loose, lock doesn’t work (neither does my tailgate lock apparently).
    My rack is the type that should work with the canopy but needs to be modified and I haven’t had time.
    Got pretty amazing fuel economy on the one tank I could calculate, 19mpg versus my typical 13mpg, that was mostly highway though.

    Looks good. I will never have a truck without a topper again.

    Sorry for the delayed reply. The squeak I had was from the vibration of the seat adjustment bar. It was high pitched and in rhythm with the vibration of the road. I was getting it at some highway and some surface street speeds.
